Buy A Moon House

By consumerist.comJuly 19, 2006

Part gag gift, part outer-space libertarianism, the Lunar Registry would like to sell you a piece of the moon. You can build a house, stardust farm, or sound stage (perfect for faking lunar landings, watch out for the wind…), whatever, it’s all yours on your lot in the Lunar Republic.

Article 11, Paragraph 5, of the 1979 Moon Agreement…allows the UN to hand-pick an “international regime” to govern the Moon…Faced with this fact… one solution arose that addressed each issue simply and elegantly… the establishment of an independent and sovereign Lunar Republic.

And If you believe that, we’ve got a bridge over the Sea of Vapors we’d like to sell you.
